  • The logo for Skin Cancer Awareness was designed by Dr. Andrew A. Hendricks to bring attention to the need for early diagnosis and treatment of skin cancer. The orange wing of the logo represents the burning rays of the sun. The blue wing depicts the sun reflecting on water. Over 5 million people develop skin cancer every year in the United States. This is almost 20 times more than the incidence of breast cancer and five times more the number of patients diagnosed with traditional cancers like colon cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, and the like. If diagnosed early, melanoma and other types of skin cancer can be successfully treated. Unfortunately, over 10,000 people in the United States still die each from skin cancer, usually melanoma. See Dr. Hendricks website, SkinCancerAwareness.com to learn more about skin cancer treatment and ways to support Skin Cancer Awareness.
